Abstract

See full text

An airship may include a plurality of struts and a plurality of hubs joined to form a geodesic frame. A material may at least substantially enclose the frame. The material may be configured to contain a gas within a volume enclosed by the material, and may also be configured to absorb solar radiation for heating the gas. The airship may include a vent configured to selectively open and close to regulate one or more of a temperature and a pressure of the gas. When the vent is open, the volume enclosed by the material may be in fluid communication with an exterior of the material. When the vent is closed, the volume enclosed by the material may be at least substantially hermetically sealed from the exterior of the material. Also disclosed are methods of carrying a payload with the airship.
